Mercury Opposite Chiron 2015-08-20 (Updated Aug 19th)

We have been recommending action during this period, but on this day you may need to mend fences.  Mercury opposes Chiron and quincunxes Uranus.  A subtle but very powerful Learning Triangle (we are unsure whether or not it is properly a “Huber” Learning Triangle) will color the day (and affect the few days before and after the perfection of the pattern).

Here is the chart, filtered for Mercury aspects:

Note that Chiron is precisely in aspect with Uranus (Semi-Sextile) in addition to both in aspect to Mercury.  Note that Moon enters Scorpio almost exactly at time of perfection of Mercury Opposite Chiron.  This is not without impact as the Moon (briefly) forms a 5th harmonic pattern (one we will call a “Quintile Triangle”) with Pluto in Qunitle aspect on one leg (of the triangle) and Hygeia in Qunitile aspect on…

Jupiter is the planet of expansion and abundance and spends about a year in each sign.

With Jupiter now in Virgo (to September 2016), there is opportunity for good fortune through serving others in a humble way.  It is easy to attract extra work assignments now, and there is increasing attention to detail.  Everyone becomes more practical, health matters come into focus and improve, and it’s an ideal time to begin any new physical regime.

This year is the time to ask:
How have I been underestimating myself?  How can I grow, do more, be more, explore more?

During Jupiter transit, we have lots of opportunities – it is time to size them up and grab them. Recognize that we deserve these opportunities, and that we’re capable of rising to the occasion. Jupiter gives us confidence to do that – have faith in life, trust yourself, go for it.

We…

Mars has changed signs, from protective, emotional, safety oriented Cancer to fun-loving, risk-taking Leo, where it will journey until Sept. 24th. During this time, we will feel a strong need to create in some way. This is a particularly vital position for Mars. Passions tends to run high, as does desire; we tend to be more strong willed and enthusiastic at this time.

Mars is a planet of action, energy, and motivation.  With Mars in Leo, there is desire to pursue pleasurable activities and recreation.  Anything that allows you to convey your sense of self is encouraged.  Romance is stimulated, as is the desire for physical love making (cue Marvin Gaye).

We enjoy taking risks now. Our ego is tied up with our actions; anything we do becomes a source of great pride — and a temptation to “prideful” positioning. If we are able to use this time to move forward on our…

Let’s finish up August, as I’m eager to write about some fairly remarkable events coming up in September.

Our Old Egos are due for a comeuppance at, around, and/or after the 29 August Full Moon. 

Most of us still have one foot in the Old Industrial-Era World of Exploitation…

It’s strange to be a pagan/spiritual being in a corporate world, but I am working on it!  This post was helpful for me – excerpts below.

“Most people spend over 30 percent of their adult waking life at work. For many of us, that time is a blur of meetings, email and frenzied activity. If there’s a gap during the day, the web usually wins our attention. We leave work exhausted and out of touch with our basic humanness.

Even though I’ve been practicing mindfulness since college and have experimented with everything from meditation retreats to daily rituals, it can still be difficult.

Below are just a few of the ideas suggested for developing mindfulness on the job:

Getting into the Habit
You’ve read all about the benefits of mindfulness and are ready to start, well, being mindful. But actually putting intention into action can be challenging. Here’s what meetup…

Click to Open Overlay GalleryINDEPENDENT FILMS HAVE Sundance. Foreign films, Cannes. And for the ascending field of unmanned aerial filmmaking, there is now San Francisco’s forthcoming Flying Robot International Film Festival.

Scheduled for November 19, FRiFF will be the first global festival to “celebrate aerial cinema from the perspective of drones.” But the festival will be more than just the stunning landscape cinematography and dronies commonly associated with aerial film—Flying Robot is making a point to highlight short films in categories that often go unnoticed. “[Flying Robot] isn’t so much about the beauty of the films,” event organizer Eddie Codel says. “The stories around some of the categories are just as important as the quality of the shots.”

Focused Yod 2015-08-19

This is a day where you can get something done.  The best use of the energy involves communications (and maybe transportation) involving healing and healing issues.  Mercury (communications and transportation) opposite Chiron (healing and teaching) form the axis of this FY.  Mercury opposite Chiron has not yet fully perfected (that happens the next day, on the 20th), so you may not obtain full resolution just yet.  However, accomplish as much as you can.

Here is the chart:

It is the only window of its kind this month, so be careful not to waste it.  And note that an important decision is part of this process.
